That's a pretty standard taxi price structure. Open, but not clear. I have no idea based on that how much a trip will cost, even if somehow I managed to keep that whole table memorized.

It seems like it could easily be combined with or even integrated into a maps API like Google Maps. Plot the route and plug the length into the formula. I guarantee it's simpler than Uber's formula.
